RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the level changes and clinical value of serum H-FABP,hs-CRP and Hcy in patients with atrial fibrillation(AF)and chronic heart failure(CHF).Methods 120 patients with AF and CHF were chosen as the observation group,100 patients with sinus rhythm were chosen as the control.The levels of H-FABP,hs-CRP and Hcy of the two groups were compared.H-FABP,hs-CRP and Hcy levels were also compared in the different subgroups divided according to the cardiac function.Risults Compared with the control group,the levels of H-FABP,hs-CRP and Hcy in patients with atrial fibrillation were significantly higher(P<0.05).The lev-els of H-FABP,hs-CRP and Hcy in the observation group were higher than those in the control group in the same cardiac function subgroup(P < 0.05). Conclusion The elevation of the level of H-FABP,hs-CRP and Hcy are closely related to the occurrence and maintenance of atrial fibrillation and the damage of myocardial cells,and it was related with the severity of cardiac function.
